The chief perqunsite in obtaining a
base ball victory, as we understand it,
is to accumulate base hits at pro
pitious times and at the same time pre
vent the opposition from achieving
similar .success. The Rourkes fell
down on both jobs yesterday after
noon and the invading host breezed
gaily through nine soft innings and
gathered in a victory, 8 to 2.
Thursday the Rourkovinians pum
melled Jimmy Moddleton, the hurling
class of the American association, all
over the lot. Yesterday a gent by the
name of Stroud, who ' isn't such a
much, made monkeys out of our ath
letes. But such it life.
On the other hand Messrs. Otto
Merz and Prince Gaskelt had the day
lights hammered out of them. Accord
ing to an inside tip Pete Compton had
twenty-five berries on yesterday's
fray and he informed his mates that if
they didn't make at least a dozen base
hits he would cave in their skulls with
a base ball bat. The threat worked
for the Distillers made seventeen safe
swats, which is a grotty good average
for one day. x
.: Platte'Maket Double. '
With twodown In the opening
stanza Albert Platte sailed a double
over Earl Smith's bean and scored

Oatkell Start Well. ,
v Gaskell hastened in from the bull
pen and subdued the Kentucky artil
lery in the eighth, but was nailed in
the ninth for four hits. Whiteman 1
doubled and scored on a similar blow
by Platte. Smith nailed Platte when
that athlete tried to stretch his drive
Into a triple. Two more hits followed,
but (ailed to do any damage. .,'
For eight innings Stroud held the
Rourkes helpless. They made a few
hits, but always flunked in the pinches.
In the ninth they put over their lone
two runs. ..
Ray Miller started the noise ' by
cracking double to right and Mar

Ira Landrith Quotes
y - Theodore Roosevelt
Des Moines,. Ia., Oct. 6. Necessity
of dry law enforcement was urged
upon lowans today by Ira Landrith,
the prohibition vice presidential can
didate as the special dry train moved
eastward through the state.
"Long, long ago," Landrith said
here, "when Theodore Roosevelt was
yet in office and had not become a
noisome pestilential party scold, he
uttered the immortal truth. 'The
worst evil in any community is un
enforced law.' Law enforcement is
not a political issue. He who op
poses the enforcement of law is. not
a politician he is an anarchist."
J. F. Hanly, the presidential can
didate, confined himself to discussing
the national issue.

New York Senator Says Meas
ure Supplanted Policy
" of Protection.
EFFORT TO KEEP REVENUES
' Beatrice, Neb.l Oct. 6. (Special
Telegram.)-Senator . Wadsworth of
New York, addressed a large crowd
this evening at the Paddock opera
house. He was introduced by Samuel
Rinaker. During his address the
speaker covered national issues en
tirely, and urged the voters to cast
their ballots for the Hughes' and
Fairbank's ticket on election day. He
said-in part:
"Taxation is a necessary incident
in the maintenance of the government
which society erects to protect it
from the forces acting from wthin or
without which unrestrained, would
destroy society. The average man un
derstands the necessity for taxes and
makes no complaint, it the burden is
distributed equitably over the wealth
of the country, and provided also,
that he is sure that he is getting a
dollar's worth of service or every dol
lar he contributes.
Republican Plari,
It has been the policy of the re
publicans to relieve the tax-payers of
the United States of a considerable
portion of the direct burden by col
lecting tax at the custom houses. By
this method under the protective tariff
system, the foreigner was charged
with license fee for the privilege of
selling his goods in our great market,
and to a considerable extent, these
license fees helped in the support of
the government. This was a proper
and wise policy, one acquisced in by
the people of the country and prac
ticed by nearly every great nation on
earth.
There is no evidence that our peo
ple desire a change in the methods of
imposing taxation for support of the
government, when the democrats
came into power in 1913, there was a
surplus of 149.000, which under wise
financial management was increasing.
The War Ttax Law.
In spite of this fact Mr. Wilson
and his colleagues set to work to
revolutionize our whole fiscal sys
tem by the adoption o fthe emergency
or war tax law. We all began lick
ing stamps. Was this due to the
war? Not at all. The first demo
matric congress increased the appro
priations by about $180,000,000 over
the appropriations of the last repub
lican congress which they denounced
grossly extravagant. At the same
time the "revenue at the customs
houses was steadily failing. Had the
republican tariff been maintained and
had the democrats refrained from ex
ceeding the appropriations of the last
republican congress, there would have
been no ,need of Ijat famous "war
tax." , '
High Mark Exceeded. '
The last democratic congress ex
ceeded the highest mark of appropria
tions by the great sum of $150,000,
000, not counting th increase due to
the preparedness program. What do
they care about appropriations? What
od they care about spending money
taken directly from the pockets of
the people Why should they care,
they have arranged it so that they con
tribute as little as possible. The north
The Bee by George McManus
ern democrats are bound Hands and
foot to their southern colleagues when
they come to vote on the -f loor of con
gress. -
Thus it is that the democratic party
manages the, finances of the United
States. '
Women for Hughes

presidential nominee.
Mrs. Nelson O'Shaughnessy and

CORNHUSKERS MEET DRAKE
With the games today, alt of the
foot ball teams of the Missouri Val
ley conference will open, their 1916
season and the chase for the valley
title, now held by Nebraska, again will
be fully under way. All conference
elevens will play today excepting the
Kansas Aggies, who met Southwest
ern at Manhattan yesterday. - Ne
braska, Missouri and Washington will
open their schedules with games on
their home grounds, the Cornhuskers
playing Drake in the first game be
tween two conference teams, the
Tigers contesting with Central college
of Fayette and the St. Louis squad
meeting Rose Polytech. Ames will
play Highland Park at Ames.
Kansas will go to Urbana to play
Illinois in one of the few contests be
tween members of the Big Nine and
the Missouri Valley conference. The
first time the Jayhawkers and Illini
met the Kansans took the long end of
the score. But that was twenty-four
years ago. Chief interest centers in
the Nebraska-Drake games with new
coachs at each scbool. and Nebraska
having lost many of last season's
stars. The combat will give foot ball
enthusiasts their first opportunity of
the season to view Stewart's team.
Lincoln reports have been optimistic
and Drake, beaten last year 48 to 13, ,
is not overly confident, particularly
in view of the slim victor" over Penn
sylvania college last Saturday.
Missouri expects little difficulty in
the combat with Central, having a
team composed of many veterans and
with a heavy line. Few reports have
come out from St. Louis regarding
Washington, but Edmunds probably
will have a team capable of overcom
ing Rose Poly.
